That could be £200 I could spend. What was their runaround time and what colour are yours in?

Two week turn around on mine. They are silver grey standard finish which gives 4 year warranty. Choice of colours is the enhanced finish which comes with 10 year warranty but costs an extra 175 quid. Note mine needed new pistons so i paid 200 all in instead of 156. :thumbsup:
